Nice scam. Either a straight up scam or the accounts are hijacked and will not last very long until the original owner/paypal decides to reverse any funds sent out and then lock the account.

even with escrow this is not safe!

all the accounts are made by me and the funds are also added me

The real question is: who the fuck are you?

You are a scammer, plain and simple, just like 99% of the others who offer to make deals like this.

It costs them nothing extra, no charge backs or fraud, gets a wee boost in publicity and milks the occasional early adopter. There are also people who are committed to using it for ideological reasons.

It's a piddly market no doubt, but there's no risk for them. They also get the money a whole load faster from Bitpay than from a credit card company.

Part of the problem is that it's absolutely wonderful for merchants but there's no incentive for their customers. They'll have to address that if they want it to grow.

Thank you, sir, for the thoughtful reply. 

Yes, just looking at the scam accusations and the currency exchange subsections here, folks are having trouble even obtaining BTC without getting scammed.  And with exchanges there are fees and of course BTC price fluctuations.  Should be interesting to see where all this is in a few years.
17543  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin usage is flat on: April 29, 2015, 07:38:24 PM
Most of the fiat volume is built from coin payment processors like bitpay,coinbase etc. The services like microsoft, dell or overstock auto dump the bitcoin for fiat.

And this has me wondering why any retailer would want to accept bitcoin.  It's harder for the consumer and it's an extra, unnecessary step for the retailer.  The only real reason I like the idea of bitcoin is that it's a worldwide currency that transcends political borders.  On the other hand, I never buy anything from overseas anyway, nor would I trust an individual in another US state, much less another country, with my money!

"If u are not interested in buying then please fuck off"

Yes, we who speak English properly very much understand the meaning(s) and common usage of the word.  It is crass, ignorant moneybeggers like yourself who usually don't get that phrases like the one I quoted above are, at the very least, off-putting to people who might otherwise lend you money.  You would do well to listen to some of the other advice people gave you in this thread, lest you go through life thinking that you're a poor, misunderstood person.
17545  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Are you waiting for the collapse of the fiat system to trigger BTC adoption? on: April 26, 2015, 10:18:59 AM
Fiat in which country--are you talking about USD, yen, euro, what?  If you're talking about across all countries, that's not going to happen in our lifetimes, probably.  It's a black swan event.  You probably won't even see the collapse of whatever currency is in use in your particular country in your lifetime.  And even if the entire fiat system were to collapse, there's absolutely no guarantee that bitcoin would be the go-to currency.  People would probably hoard gold and silver rather than something with no intrinsic worth like bitcoin.  As it stands, not many people use it right now other than hipsters and computer geeks. 

I think OP reads too much doomsday economic prattling which is so common on the internet now.
17546  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: the rise and fall of... on: April 25, 2015, 09:27:30 PM
I think there's a very real chance that Bitcoin won't see $500 again in my lifetime (I'm old).

Sorry for the bearish attitude, but it seems like we've somehow reached a stalling point. Not sure how, but we need some momentum to get things turned around.

I would say that the price of bitcoin hasn't stalled at all.  From the peak in 2013 when it was at and above $1000, we're in a straight downward trend. 

And also, I would add, the price is whatever it is.  You can say bitcoin is under- or over-valued, but that's pure speculation.  Bitcoin can't be analyzed like a stock or a bond since it has no earnings, cash flow, etc.  And I surely would take any analysis by idiots on this board with a huge grain of salt.  No offense.

No matter how many new accounts you create here, we're not stupid and can spot your scam EASILY. 

Posting in the English language section yet writing like you're Bizarro Superman is a gigantic red flag.  I get that not everyone here speaks English as a first language, but that coupled with all the 1 post accounts...SCAM. 

Bitcoin is never going to survive, much less grow, if all anyone ever sees is this crap--and it's hard to miss when you register on bitcointalk.  Go away scammers!
17548  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Investing Bitcoin in standard assets on: April 23, 2015, 04:53:09 PM
Going to the link you provided:  "This site is untrusted".  That's what Firefox says; I'm not a tech guy but I'm not proceeding any further.

Also, might I ask why I'd want to invest any money by doing what you propose instead of just investing fiat money?  I'm really looking for an answer to this, and it isn't to insult or knock your program.  I get paid in cash, so what is the advantage of converting to bitcoin first?

Can anyone answer that?
17549  Economy / Securities / Re: Looking for big Bitcoins investor for oil and energy investment in middle east on: April 23, 2015, 02:28:02 PM
Hello there. I would never invest a single Satoshi in someone who writes "u" instead of "you" in their sales pitch.  No respectable salesman would do such a thing, but scammers and 16 year old bitcoin retards would.  I think you are probably a little bit of both, am I wrong?
17550  Economy / Lending / Re: Is there any chances for me to get a loan without collateral. on: April 23, 2015, 02:23:45 PM
Yes, ask your friends or family in Malaysia.

17551  Economy / Speculation / Re: 100 satoshi = 1$ when? on: April 23, 2015, 12:45:14 AM
Well, if 100 satoshi is ever worth $1, all the satoshi I collected while fooling around with faucets would make me financially comfortable.  And a lot of other people as well, providing they haven't sold or spent any.  This would be making a lot of undeserving, time-wasting, scum-suckling suckers rich--myself included--and it isn't likely to happen.  'Tis nice to dream, though.

Wolf of Wall Street, again.  It's a fantastic movie, hilarious, and one of Martin Scorcese's finest. 
17553  Economy / Collectibles / Re: Wtb silver coins (quarters, dimes,nickels,half dollars,etc....us and non us) on: April 22, 2015, 09:12:30 PM
Considering what you wrote is an offer to buy something, a contract if you will, why would I even consider doing so from someone who writes like a 12 year old child?  I'm sorry to say that your presentation leaves a lot to be desired and don't think it doesn't matter.  In addition, if I wanted to sell my silver coins I could easily do better than what you've offered here by just selling them on Ebay--even with the fees and such.  And as someone has already said, I don't know you, and there's a HUGE risk involved in sending out coins before payment has been made. 

Good luck.
17554  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What happens with Coin collectors and people into Numismatics? on: April 19, 2015, 10:32:36 PM
What are you talking about?....Not expensive...hmf.  Shocked

The economic cost per year, for paper and minted coins is USD$ 28 Billion, compared to the Bitcoin mining cost of USD$ 0.78 Billion.
Source :  http://www.coindesk.com/microscope-conclusions-costs-bitcoin/

More detailed -- Here --> http://www.coindesk.com/microscope-real-costs-dollar/

If Bitcoin replace fiat... generations after us, will not be able to collect physical coins.

I assume you know what seniorage is, and that's what I meant.  I wasn't talking about the actual dollar amount it costs to mint a coin, but the difference between the face value of a coin and the cost to mint the same coin.  All coins other than the US penny and nickel make the government money.
17555  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What happens with Coin collectors and people into Numismatics? on: April 19, 2015, 04:56:50 AM
The cessation of coin production likely won't happen in any of our lifetimes.  Contrary to what you wrote, it isn't too expensive to mint coins (in general).  In the US, this is true for nickels and pennies but not the other denominations.  And as someone else said, precious metals will still be highly valued and so people will still collect coins, even if they were to stop being minted.

Look at the newspaper industry.  Look at stamp collecting.  The world is a tough nut and manages to keep going despite technological advancement.
17556  Economy / Lending / Re: Need 0.2000 btc loan / same amount of USD on: April 18, 2015, 10:48:56 AM
You are not a friend.  I don't love you and I don't even like you. Why don't you ask for a loan from someone in your own country who speaks your native language? You know, like a real friend or family member even.

Avoid bumping old threads that the OP which is a scammer stopped even logging or replying to it anymore.

We all know people love to increase their Post Count but there is just no need for this.

I might say the same thing about your post. I'm sorry, this thread is not exactly ancient, so why don't you take the stick out of your ass and focus on your own business.
17557  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Frustrating things on bitcoin exchanges on: April 18, 2015, 10:43:03 AM
I bought my first bit of Bitcoin on Coinbase just recently. My overall experience was positive. It took a few days for the coin to appear in my wallet but that's for security purposes and I understand that. The selling part of it was more positive, the funds were deposited back in my bank account within a couple of days. So overall not bad. Still getting the hang of bitcoin dynamics.

17559  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why do you deny evidence? bitcoin has deluded all us on: April 16, 2015, 11:59:53 PM
All indicators show that btc is slowly rising, but if you want huge peaks you might have to wait a long while for it to go there.
You might want to ignore btc if it doesn't fulfill specific need for you at the moment.

Would "all indicators" include a steadily decreasing price over the last 2 years?  Now that is deluded thinking.
17560  Economy / Gambling / Re: Investing your bitcoins with no risk to ever deteriorating exchange rate? on: April 16, 2015, 07:43:47 AM
If preserving the value of bitcoin relative to US dollars is the goal, why not just hold US dollars? Value of those doesn't fluctuate anywhere near the range of bitcoins. problem solved and you don't have to jump through all these hoops with people you don't know exchanges you don't know and derivatives that you know nothing about.
